“I posted a mild status on Facebook about having period pain and some waste of space reported me for it, and Facebook deemed it “inappropriate” and suspended my account for 24hrs, including no posts, comments, messaging or even ‘liking’ anything,” Pool said today.

“For one, I’m furious that Facebook considers being a woman with a menstrual cycle “inappropriate” but I’m even MORE furious that some conservative misogynist managed to become my friend on Facebook, so now I speak directly to this person — delete me right now. You and your patriarchal mindset are not welcome on my personal Facebook page, you sour old dinosaur. In the words of my beautiful friend Laura, I’m going to keep bleeding and keep being loud!”

Pool believes Facebook may have also had an issue with codeine, which some officials believe should become a prescription-only painkiller. It is still available over the counter at chemists.

Pool released her critically acclaimed album Deep Dark Savage Heart this year.

The singer will open for Bob Evans on a national tour throughout August.

Thanks for deleting my post about period pain & not allowing me to post for 24hrs @facebook oh yeah & for the disgusting hit of oppression
